Meals on Wheels needs a volunteer for a special Out of Town Route on Fridays. This route’s responsibilities consist of delivering frozen meal boxes to clients in an 8 mile service area around the City of Great Falls. The volunteer can be cleared to drive a County owned vehicle for this route provided they have a clean driving record. Start time is 9:30 a.m. and the route typically takes between 4 & 5 hours depending on weather.

Meals on Wheels is seeking new long-term volunteers interested in serving at Meals on Wheels. Their program delivers hundreds of meals weekly to homebound residents of Cascade County, making it possible for them to remain in their homes safely. 

Kitchen volunteers start serving at 8:30 a.m. The shift is two hours, during which food is prepared and packaged into coolers. Volunteers need to be able to move around and stay on their feet for two hours. Driving volunteers begin at 10-10:30 a.m. and make deliveries along preplanned routes. These volunteers will take the coolers to the homes and deliver meals to the residents. Volunteers also serve a brief wellness check for the residents, having a quick visit with them before moving on to the next location. You can serve one or multiple days a week based on your schedule.
